Do not buy at full price

The EASHL Season Pass is a joke and offers minuscule value to players who are looking for competitive gameplay. The game rewards players for cheesy antics more than tactical gameplay. If you are matching up against a pre-made build, be prepared for your computer teammate’s IQ to drop. No matter how much you play, you can never create a custom build that matches up against the paid builds you purchase with Pucks. It feels like the EA Sports management team got tired of being wiped by players in their own game so they took an individual’s creative freedom to make builds that work for their playing style and put up a paywall to play the game the way EA wants you to play (it’s in the trash). What’s good about this game? It’s a clear message that microtransactions are how the company intends to clawback development costs for a repackaged and unpolished game that has continued to lose quality every year. Buyers beware. Avoid paying full price and feeling the need to pay to win. It’s not worth it. You can buy the game and you can spend all the money you want on the microtransactions but at the end of the day, once that license is revoked and the server is shut down, what do you have to show for it?

Complete waste of money

I didn't know how they could make this game worse but congrats to EA, they managed to do it again every year. This does not even come close to representing real hockey anymore. It's basically terrible arcade game that rewards ridiculous 1 on 1 "moves" that no one would ever be able to pull off in a real game and punishes players would actually try to play it like a real game of hockey i.e. actually passing and playing real defense. But yes, let's put about 5000 celebration animations in the game. Yes, that is what we will stress. What joke this franchise has become. Wish I could return this trash. Celebrini on the cover is literally the only highlight from this year's game.

It's not that bad

*disclaimer i only play online* I feel like the game is pretty good with Be a Pro apart from a few bugs, but overall it is pretty good. My main complaint is with World of Chel; while the gameplay is solid and is pretty fun, the issue is that the matchmaking can be very buggy from time to time, which is not a big issue but just a little annoying and the commentary is buggy but the play by play is vary accurate. Honestly the games is not bad it's better then NHL 26 I feel like that NHL fan base complain about little things that aren't that serious. Ps the face scans are vary bad not a big issue you won't be looking at them that much
